With the opening of the Donkey Kong Country expansion to Super Nintendo World, guests can now meet Donkey Kong in Universal Studios Japan.

Donkey Kong Meet and Greet

Visitors eagerly lined up at the "Kong" attraction, set amidst lush tropical decor and trees, perfectly capturing the spirit of Donkey Kong. The excitement in the air was reminiscent of adventures found in Super Nintendo World at Universal Studios Japan.

Donkey Kong will meet with guests daily outside of his treehouse, next to Jungle Beat Shakes. Stanchions are set up in front of a platform in front of the treehouse.

A crowd gathered near the "Kong" themed attraction at Universal Studios Japan, complete with tiki-style structures and tropical decor, basking in the sun's glow.

Cartoon-ish wooden pillars with lights are around the treehouse, which sits over a rock formation. The treehouse’s supports are wrapped with vines and flowers.

A sign reading "KONG" is mounted on a tropical-themed structure at Super Nintendo World, featuring a thatched roof surrounded by palm trees and a clear blue sky at Universal Studios Japan.

A “Kong” sign is on the thatched roof above a red door.
